Corporate Governance 

Our corporate governance practices are defined in the following resources.

The Board has established Committees to assist it in exercising its authority. These Committees include the Risk and Audit Committee, the Nomination and Governance Committee, the People and Remuneration Committee and the Sustainability Committee.

Our business operates in accordance with these Governance Documents.

Please note, these external versions of our documents may restate or omit elements of the internal version for clarity or brevity. Our Global Standards are reviewed at least each 12 months, and so these external versions may be periodically updated.

BHP teams at operation, asset, region and global aggregation levels have clear accountabilities under our organisational design approved by the Company's Executive Leadership Team. Our Global Controlled Documents, including Global Standards (previously Our Requirements standards) and controlled documents that apply within particular teams, give effect to these accountabilities and outline the mandatory minimum performance requirements for BHP. Unless otherwise specifically stated in the standard, they apply for BHP-operated assets. Although these documents are for internal use, we have made the sustainability-related elements of several of these publicly available where we believe they clarify our management approach, and/or where there is a broader community or industry benefit.
